2. He drove me into captivity and made me walk in darkness and not light.
3. He repeatedly attacks me,he turns his hand against me all day long.ב (Bet)
4. He has made my mortal skin waste away;he has broken my bones.
5. He has besieged and surrounded mewith bitter hardship.
6. He has made me reside in deepest darknesslike those who died long ago.ג (Gimel)
7. He has walled me in so that I cannot get out;he has weighted me down with heavy prison chains.
8. Also, when I cry out desperately for help,he has shut out my prayer.
9. He has blocked every road I take with a wall of hewn stones;he has made every path impassable.ד (Dalet)
10. To me he is like a bear lying in ambush,like a hidden lion stalking its prey.
11. He has obstructed my paths and torn me to pieces;he has made me desolate.
12. He drew his bow and made methe target for his arrow.ה (He)
